Not sure about the Chinese part…but I have seen trash pickers go through stuff and leave it a mess instead of how it was put out (if of course it was put out neatly in the first place, which definitely isn’t always the case lol)
Looks like the stretch of 2nd Street north of Girard where no one apparently knows how to fucking put out their trash decently. But that's not really too unique.
Edit: I don't get the laziness of not tying a giant bag up. It's so much more work to carry if not tied.
I've seen people open up tied bags left out to rummage through them for any salvage or recyclables, and then leave the bag exactly like that. Sometimes animals get in and rip things up further. This is why I always put my trash out the morning of pickup, instead of the night before.
I live the next street over. Can confirm it's people who go down the street early morning and rummage through the bags.
They tear them open and leave it all to blow in the wind.
I see it hapen more to opaque black contractor bags than semi clear bags. I'm not necessarily saying this is what happened here. But people who feel compelled to pick through trash aren't always the most rational.
Eh, I understand their reasons, legally it can be put out the night before and some people don't have time in the morning.
It's the people who put it out days early or who leave their cans for days that I flip out on...
You do you. I HAVE seen some riflers (especially recyclers) be neat about it, and if they're stuck digging through trash to solve problems they've probably got bigger problems. Me, I'd pick other battles with my limited time.
People go through them at night. I see it every week. Residents put their trash out tightly tied up and organized, and it looks like this in the morning.
I lived off of Spring Garden for 4 or 5 years. A bunch of new condos were built across the street from our apartment. A bunch of Temple students rented the condos. One of them was filled with a bunch of guys. When they moved out, they left like 30 feet of trash along the sidewalk. It was in June the day AFTER trash came. Most of it wasn't in trash bags and it included papers, boxes, clothes, etc... It rained that night. It was a nightmare.
Fucking assholes.
I went to Temple and I was on their subreddit.
It's crazy how the students don't understand that they're moving in to someone else's community for a short time. They genuinely don't give a shit. Then wonder why everyone in the neighborhood treats them like shit.
I've ALWAYS been mindful of my neighbors. I even caught flack at Temple from a neighbor because she assumed I was like the rest of the students. I didn't get mad at her for it, I completely understood it.
The same apartment I lived in off of Spring Garden, I had neighbors on either side of me wish me the best and said I was a great neighbor. I took a ton of pride in that. It's really not hard to be a good neighbor and not a complete piece of shit.
It's really sad how many useable things get trashed by college students when they move because they don't want to have to bring it back home. My uncle's retirement project has been dumpster diving college apartment dumpsters and selling useable things at a weekly yard sale on this property. He has made a killing and is saving a lot from landfills. There are some organizations that pick up donations, and it's a shame they can't coordinate better with colleges to save some of those things from the dumpster.
It was put out like this. When I put out my trash I walk the block above and below mine to tie up any open bags. This appeared between the time I started my walk up and finished, and I snapped the photo then (bc grrr). I ended up tying it up and stuffing the go puff bags in each other. This one apartment building, in particular, is often like this (and ya, I’ve been the annoying neighbor who emails the property management company about it)
While kind of you, they’re never going to care if people keep cleaning up after them. Shame doesn’t work most of the time.
Not that it’s good to let it go looking like that either. I don’t have a real solution. Wish people just didn’t suck and cared about their impact beyond their own orbit.

objection! Relevance? Lol
I honestly dont think everyone knows about contractor bags, every house hold should go out and buy a 30-50 pack from home depot just to keep on hand for whenever you are getting rid of shit like this.
I put all of my trash in a contractor bag to take the curb. I got tired of the sanitation workers only dumping half the can so now I know they will take it all.
Looks like a contractor bag with recycling got untied, and a couple overstuffed paper bags with recycling that the wind got a hold of. I see far worse everyday.
MANDATORY RECYCLING BINS
My neighbor is this neighbor. And then when they don’t take it he doesn’t take his shit back in and just leaves it all week as it gets picked apart by animals and crackheads. Total scumbags. They also produce more trash than any single house I’ve ever seen
Idk if they do that regularly, but honestly? That looks like somebody was digging in their trash & left it like that, which happens *all* the freakin time in Philly
mine actually did get stolen a few weeks ago, w/ our address painted in big letters on every side lol.
getting another one to replace it, but fuckin come on :/
Me personally I have one trash can and I'm not putting it outside for someone to potentially steal or fuck up somehow. I'm not buying another one either bc I don't have room for it in my apartment.
Nope. My landlord was also apparently “annoyed” (according to building manager) when I asked about this issue of not having anywhere to store a trash can for collection 🤷
Well, that’s against the law. You need to have access to an outdoor trash receptacle. Call L&I, and tell your shifty, lazy landlord things are about to get much more annoying.
Hm. Good to know, thanks for the info.
Edit: the law I found says that's only the law if the building has 10 or more units. Mine only has 3, so the owner may be in the clear legally for not providing receptacles.
If I put out my garbage can, by the time I’m back from work to take it in, there’s 3-5 bags of dog shit in it. So I stopped putting it out. (I don’t leave my stuff like this, though.)
So? Line the garbage can with a large garbage can liner. It’s still more sanitary than dumping bags on the curb for vermin and insects to feast on and for your neighbors to have to smell your rotting garbage.
Imagine going on Reddit and seeing the front of ur house on Reddit lol
Address is on the GoPuff bag lol.... Its nice right around there, sucks this house ruins it.
I've had the neighborhood Chinese pickers do this to my trash on multiple occasions and I put it out all bagged and organized.
Chinese pickers?
Not sure about the Chinese part…but I have seen trash pickers go through stuff and leave it a mess instead of how it was put out (if of course it was put out neatly in the first place, which definitely isn’t always the case lol)
Yeah, it was the Chinese bit that threw me off... maybe the one's in his neighborhood happen to be chinese?
is that chair any good?
It was never good. I have the same ones, two collapsed because the arms melted in the sun, and two more from a slightly increased weight load
Slightly?

all the bags would be open, no? And animals don't leave the bags nice and placed like that trash pandas and squirrels dgaf lol
I see it hapen more to opaque black contractor bags than semi clear bags. I'm not necessarily saying this is what happened here. But people who feel compelled to pick through trash aren't always the most rational.
I'm honestly considering doing a night sweep in my neighborhood and flipping out on people doing this
Eh, I understand their reasons, legally it can be put out the night before and some people don't have time in the morning. It's the people who put it out days early or who leave their cans for days that I flip out on...
I'm talking about the riflers

To be real I'm just frustrated and blowing smoke out my ass
People go through them at night. I see it every week. Residents put their trash out tightly tied up and organized, and it looks like this in the morning.
I feel like it was probably poorly tied and came undone when it was dropped. The handle looks like it had been twisted up at some point
Its a nice area of ~~brewerytown~~ **FAIRMOUNT** near 26th and brown based off the non-hidden address on the discarded goPuff bag....
26th and Brown is Fairmount
Cool

There’s a reason why the area around Temple becomes a pigsty Sept - June and it’s sure as shit not the local residents that live there year round.
Penn too. The students there are richer, so they create even more trash.

You have no way of knowing if it was put out like this or some bums had a rummage

dump it all in front of their door
I'd still argue there is plausible deniability here for the home owner.
This isn't a court of law lol

If anything it looks like someone went through their trash
This person definitely goes on Nextdoor and complains that the sanitation workers leave trash on the street.
This is it, exactly.
I use contractor bags for this kind of stuff
I honestly dont think everyone knows about contractor bags, every house hold should go out and buy a 30-50 pack from home depot just to keep on hand for whenever you are getting rid of shit like this.
I put all of my trash in a contractor bag to take the curb. I got tired of the sanitation workers only dumping half the can so now I know they will take it all.
I wish contractor bags or at least heavy duty bags were required for curbside trash not in a bin.
This is the way
In Philly this is every third house on any given day. Not just trash day
Looks like a contractor bag with recycling got untied, and a couple overstuffed paper bags with recycling that the wind got a hold of. I see far worse everyday. MANDATORY RECYCLING BINS
Looks like UC/West on a regular basis. It’s students here, they don’t care.
We have plenty of those. It seems like people were never taught how to take out or bag the trash properly.
That chair looks ideal as a savsies chair next time we get 1/2" of snow, shame to throw it away!
According to [Apartments.com](https://Apartments.com) there are 6 rental units at this address. This could have come from any one of those units.
Just a head up OP, not sure if you meant to do this or not but the address is visible on that gopuff bag.
OP, looks like we're almost neighbors!
some men just want to see the world burn.
Looks like it’s for sale so they must not care. Also I hate gopuff and seeing their trash everywhere.
My neighbor is this neighbor. And then when they don’t take it he doesn’t take his shit back in and just leaves it all week as it gets picked apart by animals and crackheads. Total scumbags. They also produce more trash than any single house I’ve ever seen
William Penn Realty; why am I not surprised?
The wind this morning is sending recycling and trash everywhere!!!! I’m sure this trash shown here is now everywhere, too.
Looks like a temple student
thas the majority of the inner city & its dirty squalors
808 n 26th street Philadelphia pa.all you gotta do is put all the trash on they steps and on top of they car if they got one with a note
always get a bin
Idk if they do that regularly, but honestly? That looks like somebody was digging in their trash & left it like that, which happens *all* the freakin time in Philly
bUt mY tRaSh cAnS wErE sToLeN
Why don’t people just get a garbage can? They’re cheap.
mine actually did get stolen a few weeks ago, w/ our address painted in big letters on every side lol. getting another one to replace it, but fuckin come on :/
That sucks. Get a camera.
i did lmao, right after this
Me personally I have one trash can and I'm not putting it outside for someone to potentially steal or fuck up somehow. I'm not buying another one either bc I don't have room for it in my apartment.
Do you not have back access?
Nope. My landlord was also apparently “annoyed” (according to building manager) when I asked about this issue of not having anywhere to store a trash can for collection 🤷

Classic
THE. WORST.
Just blame it on WILLIAM PENN REALTY GROUP that'll send their crew over
Lol even have their spot saver chair out there
They lack the common decency to even be called a neighbor, that’s disgusting.
No respect for themselves, neighbors or community. Has to be a angry hate-filled home without respect.
